    Takesushi has extremely pleasant and warm service! Servers were always quick to refill my tea and the sushi chef finessed the 10 pieces of sushi artfully. Definitely coming back.

    Most of the fish is flown in from Japan and is high quality. The grilled cod which my bf and I shared was life changing. This is a homey, authentic Japanese restaurant and not fancy but so good!

    A little pricey for the neighborhood but you get quality in return. The chirashi is beautifully presented. Comes with uni. Get anything with uni.

    Super authentic. The owner has run seafood distribution business for over 30 years in NYC. No words needed to explain their food quality. Just come.

    Fresh sushi! While the prices are slightly high, the quality of the sushi is refreshing. Make sure to try the BBQ Eel roll and the H&L roll. Yummm....

    Probably one of the best sushi place in NYC. Try uni-don w/ day special sashimi. (+ the ladies are very nice like your mom.)

    The grilled mackerel is surprisingly juicy, and the omakase is fantastic.

    Some say owner/chef Robin Kawada opened the 1st sushi restaurant in Manhattan in 1975! In addition to this Queens outpost, Kawada owns a 15-seater in Japan. Too legit to quit.
